I completely feel you all I’ve done for the past three days is cry! I’m going to call my doctor tomorrow see if I can get something for the heartburn! Sending you all the love xxxx
I can relate. I don't have heartburn but my pelvic pain is just getting worse and worse and just in pain 24/7. It's hard to accept that I still have so long left of just being in pain. You don't need to feel guilty, pregnancy is a very small part of being a parent and is not always enjoyable- it puts such a huge strain on our bodies. This is my second pregnancy and I thought I would enjoy it more this time around but this time I've just realized I really don't like being pregnant
Talk to your GP! I'm on omeprazole for heartburn, and my cousin was given crutches to help with the pelvic pain. They might also be able to refer you to someone to talk to x
I’ve been on omeprazole which hasn’t helped in the slightest and I’m taking the maximum amount of rennies every day. I loved being pregnant with my first. Just absolutely hate it this time round 🤦🏼♀️
I eat almost a whole pack of rennies a day, it is so painful and the rennies last for like an hour if that
You should have bicarbonate of soda in your cupboard mix one teaspoon with water and drink it in one go. It stops my heartburn within 5-10 minutes. Have it whenever you feel it’s natural and safe to take. Midwife and doctor approved.
That’s what gaviscon contains but it’s expensive
Are you on the high strength omeprazole? I believe there's other drugs GPs can prescribe if it's not enough x
It is hard, especially the further along you get. Maybe speak to your doctor about being prescribed something for heartburn? In the meantime maybe try some gaviscon or rennies if you haven’t already. I hope it eases off a bit for you so you can enjoy it more. Not long left now ❤️
